Hi there, I'm Jeff! Like many of us on Expat Blog, I'm an expat.
But my biggest pleasure comes from swaying those who say "Not yet, but I'm considering it..." to making the leap.
I run a blog/resource website at http://www.ExpatYourself.com
I first tasted expat life as a university student in Moscow, Russia (then the Soviet Union). Like many of you, I was hooked.
Fast forward some twenty years...and I've lived & worked in 7 countries, ranging from a few months to few years. Vacationing adds another 20+ countries. It's a passion.

Interests: travel, persuading future expats, wife, kids, , taichi, baking
